Hi everyone, I thought I might give a quick update.
I fitted a temporary perspex roof to the Cub Dreamliner

First impessions are good, it's much faster and more economical with the roof fitted due to the improved aerodynamics, a more permanent and ergonomic fixing is planned. As well as improved performance, it will keep me warmer and drier this winter.
I'll post the results when proper testing has been done.

I attended a weekend gathering of fellow UK FF'ers in September, a photo of a few of the bikes parked in the grounds of Raglan castle.

For my next trick I'll be turning this collection of parts :-

Into one of these :-

Based on the Honda 250/400 Superdream, originally conceived and built by John Bruce around 20 years ago.
